Immortal Imperfections

Threatening Mist

My face was drained of all life

I kept on staring at the kitchen knife 

I had lost my last shreds of effervescence

along with the cracked pieces of ebullience

My eyes had sunk , dark and deep

Oh! how I wished eternal sleep

I imagined her walking, twirling her strands of auburn hair

I pushed the table ,screaming with despair

I pulled my hair, ready to tear them apart

for I could still feel my broken heart

Then I could feel mist threaten my eyes

I remembered her crafting lies

She would play with her hair and talk to herself

I would just stare at her, forgetting myself

Today, I stared at my terrace

for my conscious was misted with menace

for the future

I feared

would I be able to face a life so deceptive

would I be able to live life with a new perspective

And so I walked up to the balcony

and jumped, finishing my testimony
